Casting the First Stone

by Mark Tooley, Frontpagemag.com

The Geneva-based World Council of Churches (WCC) has yet really to condemn the Khmer Rouge genocide in Cambodia 35 years ago. Or the Marxist orchestrated famine in Ethiopia that killed almost as many during the 1980s. It never directly condemned the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. Saddam Hussein’s hundreds of thousands of murdered victims also failed to arouse the WCC’s concern across 25 years. Nor has the multitude of crimes by Iran’s theocracy across 30 years interested the WCC. North Korea’s slave state for the WCC is a place of pilgrimage but not criticism. Even North Korea’s recent unprovoked torpedoing of a South Korean ship, killing 46 sailors three months ago, has not caused the WCC to peep.

But the WCC needed less than 24 hours to condemn Israel’s “deplorable” interception of a “peace” flotilla trying to bust the blockade of Hamas-ruled Gaza. The 9 anti-Israel “peace” activists killed after the Israelis were resisted with metal poles and other weapons, were apparently more sacred to the WCC than the millions of victims slain by communism, Islamists and other anti-Western tyrannies over the last 4 decades.

“It is with great distress that the World Council of Churches received the news that the Israeli naval forces stormed a Gaza-bound vessel carrying humanitarian aid in international waters before dawn on Monday, killing at least 10 civilians and injuring many more,” immediately bemoaned WCC chief Olav Fykse Tveit. A Norwegian Lutheran theologian, Tveit seems steadfastly committed to the WCC tradition of bashing only Israel and America. “We condemn the assault and killing of innocent people who were attempting to deliver humanitarian assistance to the people of Gaza, who have been under a crippling Israeli blockade since 2007.”

Why has Gaza been blockaded by Israel, and, though unmentioned by the WCC, also by Egypt? Could its rocket-firing Hamas regime be part of the explanation? The WCC is not interested in such details. “We further condemn the flagrant violation of international law by Israel in attacking and boarding a humanitarian convoy in international waters,” Tveit continued. “We pray for all those who are affected by the attack, especially the bereaved families.”

Tveit demanded Israel repatriate all of the flotilla’s activists, release the impounded ships and, naturally, end the blockade of Gaza. He also wants a “full” United Nations investigation into Israel’s “assault.” For that, Tveit almost certainly will get his wish. He concluded: “The deplorable events which occurred yesterday off the coast of Gaza remind us yet again of the pressing need for an end to the Israeli military occupation of the Palestinian territories.” But of course, Gaza is not Israeli occupied. It is governed by its Islamist “liberators,” Hamas. And most of the West Bank is governed by the Palestinian Authority. It’s never entirely clear what the Religious Left means by “occupation.” But certainly it ignores the considerable problems created by Gaza’s and most of the West Bank’s ostensible liberation from direct Israeli control.

The WCC’s major U.S. member, the Presbyterian Church U.S.A., also chimed in quickly over the Gaza flotilla in slightly more measured tones. “A severe blockade of Gaza by Israel in response to the free election of Hamas representatives in 2006 and the military incursions of Operation Cast Lead in late 2008 and early 2009 have dramatically increased the already acute humanitarian need,” surmised the church’s Stated Clerk, Gradye Parsons. “We grieve the killing and injuring of participants in the humanitarian effort, as well as the injuring of members of the Israeli military forces that occurred when the Israeli forces stormed one of the ships and those on board resisted.”

Parsons noted that the Presbyterian tradition is “not strictly pacifist,” which is surely an understatement, but “honors peaceful resistance, including nonviolent disobedience to unjust government policies and actions.” He opined that the flotilla could have been a “powerful” instrument for peaceful resistance. And he warned, “These actions sometimes incite violent responses,” but the “long-term success of this kind of resistance requires a nonviolent response on the part of the demonstrators, even when they are under attack.” Parsons sounds like a Presbyterian Gandhi.

Meanwhile, Jerusalem-based Sabeel, a center for Palestinian Liberation Theology with Western affiliates, including Friend of Sabeel – North America, has quickly issued a prayer litany of solidarity with the failed Gaza flotilla. “The Israeli attack on the Gaza Flotilla resulted in numerous deaths, dozens of injuries, and hundreds of arrests,” Sabeel bewailed. “Almighty God, comfort the bereaved, heal the injured, and grant freedom to the prisoners. We pray that you will strengthen each of us to do what is necessary to end the siege on Gaza. Help us to recognize and to fight the structures of oppression, wherever we may encounter them.”

Do these “structures of oppression” include the Hamas regime in Gaza, or its chief patrons, the Islamist theocrats who tyrannize Iran? If so, Religious Left groups in the West, who are Sabeel’s main patrons, will not say so audibly. Maybe the WCC is praying quietly, very quietly, for Hamas’s victims. These silent prayers are perhaps similar to the inaudible prayers that the WCC and the rest of the international Religious Left may have lifted up for so many otherwise unacknowledged victims of tyranny and oppression over the last 40 years. Apparently only Israel’s and America’s victims can benefit from the Religious Left’s very loud prayers.

In ZEKCHARYAH 14;18 there is mention of “the family of Egypt”, this refers to the arab world as a whole. As much as these are an unregenerate peoples, (unregenerate; as in being not reborn of the Spirit of HaShem), so are those that are of any religious organisation such as the world council of churches. They only possess “a show of holiness” but they deny the power of holiness, they are a powerless entity taking the sides of the ‘temporary-apparent-powerful’, (just like mussolini did in his day; taking the side of the temporary; seemingly powerful hitler), but as Sir Winston Churchill said “it shall not stand”. (The most religious being is the satan; with all that pomp & ceremony; but its end is an eternity of fire that burs with brimstone. The world council of churches is an entity that is reprobate in the eyes of HaShem. It is a world of pretends, an organisation that has joined itself to rome and the act of joining oneself to rome is joining oneself to an entity that has a history of grave violence against an innocent people. HaShem has said “come out of her My people lest you partake of her the destruction that awaits her”. We are aware that germany, who tagged along with the Celtic peoples, (lost ten Tribes of the House of Israel, the Caucasians, who are in the Diaspora as much as the House of Yehuda, [we have named, regarded and treated our own as goyim), is edom as much as rome is edom, there would therefore be an inevitable remnant of edom in the Scandinavian lands such as Sweden, a seed of amalek. If only king Saul disallowed agag to procreate on the very last night of his life, we would have had a great deal less troublesome neighbours on our hands today. HaShem’s Hidden Ones are but a minority on the podium of humanity, but they are the triumphant ones in the final battle for supremacy. The bullied shall reign over the bullies. Supremacy shall be awarded to them as all of humanity shall bow to their King and Supreme and Eternal Ruler. The world council of churches is, like the united nations, a paper-tiger, clique of ‘hide behind the desks’ and microphones of international gossip, cowards who would consider breathing a feat of great bravado. These people have never had the intelligence to understood the theology of “Casting the First Stone”, yet in all their gross sin they have done little else but casting stones and having never understood it they have therefore never have the understanding of the gravity of their actions in deed or in speech. The world council of churches, without rome is nothing, it is a “protestant” clique that have and always will swing on mother-rome’s apron strings, rome; the mother harlot of spiritual harlots children, who will direct and her children to follow obsequiously. As an ex-roman I speak with authority!!! Having also lived in Europe for nine years, my findings are in support of the Spanish journalist, a continent of cowards who condemned six million of decent people in exchange of a greater number of belligerent murderous anarchists that have no respect for anyone and anything other than the idea of their illusive seventy-two virgins, a continent of cowards that boycotted tiny Israel’s sixtieth birthday celebration at an invitation while on the other hand placed the good wishes of a slime-ball on those that celebrate ramadan. From that cowardly outgrowth comes the cowardly chief of a conglomeration of religious dead-beats belonging to a dead church preaching dead homilies to dead congregations on the verge of embracing another dead religion embracing violence and death.
